‘Not fit for purpose’ or ‘excellent and important journalism’ – your views on the BBCpublished at 14:34 GMT
We’ve been asking for your views on the BBC, after Trump’s threat to sue the corporation and the resignation of two of its top officials:
“The BBC is not fit for purpose and should be closed down completely. Its bias is obvious for all to see.”
Chris
“We strongly support the BBC and its excellent and important journalism. We trust in its efforts to present truthful and balanced reporting… it seems that mistakes have been made and we hope that safeguards and possibly some structural changes could be put in place to prevent future issues.”
Carol and David
“Long overdue – the BBC is not the same organisation I grew up with and respected… Shame on you.”
Andrew
“The BBC have made mistakes for which you must apologise… yes, of course you must learn from the mistakes, but it is very important that you stand up for the BBC’s ideals of impartiality and freedom of speech.”
Dale Heaton
“As
an American, the US media lost my confidence due to politically motivated fake
news. In search of an institution with a history of established, fact-based
journalism, I turned to BBC. Now this has undermined their credibility and
reputation, eroding public trust in the process. Those involved have done a
damage that will take time to restore.”
